The Canadian Farm Builders Association was formed by a group of farm building contractors who met on Feb. 5, 1980 and saw a need for some uniformity in the farm building industry as well as some quality standards to work from. With ongoing seminars and manuals the CFBA members today work with the latest information available. Most of this information comes from the Canadian Farm Builders Association and OMAFRA.

Today our association has over two hundred members. These members include farm builders, engineers, OMAFRA employees, building inspectors, and suppliers of farm building related products. Farm buildings are getting more and more complicated every day, with environmental concerns as well as safety. Today’s farm buildings are not just barns, they are a series of products to produce healthy livestock, save energy and protect the environment.

Quality can only come with the knowledge of today’s codes, construction practices and environmental requirements.
